Abstract

Background: This article recognises Professor Linda Worrall’s contribution to aphasiology and discusses research themes which have grown from her work.

Aims: To review, summarise, and discuss literature relating to four themes which have emerged from the work of Professor Worrall: (1) Research capacity building; (2) Implementation of research evidence in clinical practice; (3) Meaningful outcome measurement; and (4) Improvement of psychological and emotional outcomes.

Main contribution: A review of the literature, with examples of practical applications.

Conclusions: The work of Professor Worrall has greatly influenced the field of aphasia; her legacy is the research capacity she has built in Australia and around the world.
